Pay Gap Widens as UK Bosses Earn 130 Times Average Worker’s Salary

The UK pay gap has widened, with FTSE 100 bosses earning 130 times the salary of the average full-time worker, according to High Pay Centre figures. Median CEO pay rose to £5.06m in the latest financial year, up from £4.66m, the highest level on record.
